HTC Founder Wang Xuehong is a devout Christian. She was once evaluated and spent more time communicating with God in church than in the company.

Prayer is not always useful. On September 21, HTC, which had been acquired many times, announced that it would sell its Pixel mobile phone team to Google for $1.1 billion. Three years ago, Wang Xuehong said that she would not attack HTC in her lifetime. Three years later, the Iron Lady lowered her proud head.

HTC, which was slimmed by weight, has a brilliant history like its founder: it once produced the world's first smartphone, and after Apple and Samsung rose, the three have become leaders in the industry. In 2011, the company's market value reached RMB 200 billion.

Unfortunately, it did not escape the curse of the peak of prosperity and the decline of the moon. In 2012, HTC began to decline. After nine consecutive quarters of losses, the company's market value evaporated by nearly 95% in six years. Later stories can be summarized in Lei Jun's words: "No mobile phone company in the world can successfully reverse after its sales decline."

Nowadays, HTC leaves people with the most discussion topics of past sentiment. The latest IDC data shows that HTC's mobile phone market share is only 0.68%, ranking out of the top ten in the world.

In this 200 billion lesson, the figure of believer Wang Xuehong is the most critical.

Wang Xuehong has a famous saying: "Everything of mine is God, and I am already very satisfied."

always says that God is the speech style of entrepreneur Wang Xuehong. When she bought Silicon Valley chip company VIA in 1988, and became a competitor of Intel , the outside world laughed at the 30-year-old woman for overestimating her abilities. Compared with Intel, the world's elite, VIA, with less than 3,000 employees and a market value of no more than NT$30 million, is simply a small shrimp.

Wang Xuehong was very calm: "In the eyes of God, the little ant has the same status as the big whale."

Such calmness later appeared at the infringement hearings between VIA and Intel. VIA survived the orders for Combat Computer and ran all the way. Wang Xuehong once won 70% of the global chipset market share. But the big tree attracts wind. She was first warned by Intel. Then, for four years, every time VIA released a new product, it would be sued for infringement by Intel. During the period of

, Wang Xuehong attended no less than 100 hearings. An old VIA employee concluded: "For Wang Xuehong, who studies science, science and religion are just a line between them. When she has done her manpower in everything, she doesn't need to worry too much about the rest, and she will have her own answer in the end."

However, VIA's answer is not beautiful. Under Intel's pursuit, VIA's stock price fell again and again. According to industry calculations, Wang Xuehong and her investors paid as much as 220 billion yuan.

The first generation of iron lady lowered her head and gave in.

So, do you think that a boss who is blindly communicating with God can make the company bigger?
